Read more poetry from our farmworker portfolio with “The Weeds” by @BanuelosJulian.
thecommononline.org/the-weed…
ALT Panhandle-colored skin. When I grow / Old you’ll see rows of cotton run above / My arched brows. My hands will return / To adolescence. But my body will speak— / Through aches and pains, I inherited/ Privilege.

From “Murcielago” by Rodney Gomez in our Farmworker Poetry Feature:
thecommononline.org/farmwork…
ALT If I sang I was sinful, I was animal. Stole sips from circumscribed fountains. I said murcielago, my knuckles drew a ruler. I said San Judas, my arm was viced. Survived by christening the bruise a train track. Headed south and underground. To no nation and back to a nation that was mine.
